Curious Cat
she/her

My name is Cat (she/her), a serial-hobbyist 30-something living in the South of France. I make videos about books, writing, travels, and other random things living rent-free in my neurodivergent brain.
I read fantasy, science fiction, contemporary/literary fiction, non-fiction, graphic novels...
I host Neurovember, a readathon held in November (duh) to raise awareness around neurodiversity and neurodivergence.

Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought her back.

It's my birthday next month, and I need your help ^^
I want to fill my month with fun and whimsy things/activities, so I'm thinking of doing a bingo board or something like that with a bunch of delightful prompts, but I need ideas!
Send me your suggestions, and I might add them to whatever form this ends up taking. Thank youuu 💛

Hello friends,
I've been feeling a bit meh about YouTube lately, posting less, struggling to find my motivation. I think part of the problem is that my community here feels like it's gotten smaller over time, with quite a few channels I love, watched and interacted with regularly slowly disappearing or posting much less...
The making connections part of BookTube is what has motivated me from the start, so I think it's time I try to expand my horizon a little bit more and try to make new BookTube friends again ^^
If you have channels you think I would like to recommend, please do so in the comments here!
To give you a sense of the vibes I'm looking for, some of my all-time favorite channels are: ‪@christy-anne-jones‬ ‪@ellenmadebookclub‬ ‪@goodmornindreamer‬ ‪@KateLee3‬ ‪@TheKatBite‬
Bonus points for people in their 30's and/or based in Europe ^^
Thank you 💛

FRIENDS! Today marks my channel's second anniversary! Can you believe it's been two years already? I surely can't 🤯

To celebrate anyway, I've got a little treat of a video for you -- a book haul WITH A TWIST! ... Dun! Dun! Dun! (So much suspense...)
I hope you'll join me at the premiere in a couple of hours 🥳

Take care, everyone, and the BIGGEST thank you for hanging out with me on this corner of the internet. You all bring me so much joy 💛

The bookshelves reorganization is live!
It took so much time and effort, but I'm really happy with how it all turned out ^^
Thanks to everyone who answered the poll, I appreciate your input 💛

Hey friends,
I'm almost done editing the shelf reorganization video, and it's a rather short one (about 15 min). I was wondering if I should include a shelf tour as well, while I'm at it. What do you think?
I won't be commenting on every single book, but I'm unsure how much detail you might be interested in. Let me know in the comments what you'd like me to include and cover.
(I would likely film it this afternoon so that the video can be up tomorrow, so early votes especially appreciate ^^)
Thanks, everyone! Have a good weekend

The reorganizing is 99% done!!! (I'll finalize it tomorrow once I've picked my 26 for 2026 books from my shelves - also an upcoming video). Here's a little sneak peek.
Thanks to everyone who voted in the poll earlier - UNANIMITY!!! I've got a separate section for my writing books, as you all advised.
I'll try to get the video up by the end of the week - I know the suspense is unbearable 😂
Take care, everyone!

Friends, I need your help!
I'm in the middle of reorganizing my bookshelves (video coming up soon, obviously). I'm going for a chronological ordering of my TBR (most recent acquisition to oldest, because why not?)
I'm already mixing fiction and nonfiction (as opposed to how my TBR was before). But I can't decide if I want to keep my writing books (craft books, sociology books about writers, as well as books I got for research on specific projects) separate or blend them into the whole TBR bookcase.
What do you think??

I DIT IT!!! 🥳
I just finished my over-ambitious, supposedly delusional end-of-year TBR 🎊
And now…?

On to the next book (and year) ☺️

Happy New Year, everyone. May it bring you lots of books and happiness 💛

Today's a short and sweet video from the backlog to keep you company while I'm stuck in bed, sick and unable to film. I hope you'll enjoy, and I also hope to be back soon with more "seasonal" content as we dive into the New Year!
Take care, everyone!
